How can I find international scholarships for undergraduates in Canada?

I'm looking into applying to universities in Canada, but I'm concerned about the costs as an international student. Does anyone know of scholarships specifically for undergraduates studying in Canada? Any advice would be super helpful!

Sure, I'd be glad to help out. Canada is home to many prestigious universities and there are indeed scholarships available specifically for international undergraduates.

First, some Canadian universities themselves offer scholarships for international students. It would be wise to check the websites of the universities you're applying to and through their scholarship or financial aid page to see if there are any scholarships for which you'd be eligible. For instance, the University of British Columbia, the University of Calgary, and the University of Winnipeg all offer scholarships specifically for international students.

Secondly, you could also consider scholarships from third-party organizations like the Canadian Government. They offer scholarships and awards to foreign students every year such as the Canadian Commonwealth Scholarship Program.

Another tip is to consider the Lester B. Pearson International Scholarship Program. It's exclusively for international students and is offered by the University of Toronto.

Lastly, a simple Google search of "International undergraduate scholarships in Canada" should provide several promising leads. However, keep in mind that application processes and deadlines vary, so remember to double-check all the details and start early. You also want to make sure to meet all eligibility requirements before you apply.

Remember, scholarships are not the only form of financial aid available. There may be work-study programs, grants, and other aid packages that you might apply for as well.

Keep persevering and researching to find the right scholarships and opportunities for you. Best of luck with your applications!
